Didn't get off to a good start with a couple of bust offs in a row. At least the fish were big enough! Plenty of weed, typical of low summer water. Still a pain in the arse.

We use to shoot them with our bow and arrow. Drop a dead goat in the stream and use a spotlight at night. Great fun!!Quote:

Attachment 21150
Minding my own business when there was a hollo from the ridge yelling out "DAD"
I replied with a shot but could only here the words "DAD"
I ran downstream about a km and got visual and could here what PT was yelling out. The nephews and there mum are moving to Aussie. So race home to say goodbye.
On the way I had a few flicks with the lure and landed a fat 3lber

Never gutted it as the Nephews and there mum were pressed for time but thankfully caught up with them on the road as they were leaving.Nice to say goodbyes:cool:

Fukn gold Toby!!!Quote:

This second rainbow is caused by light reflecting twice inside water droplets.Quote:

I caught this few weeks ago not today, but its worth sharing... Caught 3 more same sized (1 every week for the past month) over the weekend free time.... been having a blast fishing fresh water after so many years of not doing it.
Managed to pull out a solid size Tench too... not sure how to cook it tho :) probably will go on the BBQ

Last night when I came home there was a cop at the end of my road sitting there with his lights on.I had rifle on the front of bike and rod in my hand, don't no what he was up to but was a bit un easy turning in front of his patrol car to get on my our road.
The rivers are firing all right Petros:thumbsup:
there is always a reason for his visit.
what have you been up to???
Petros i batter the trout or crumb it and it's so nice don't have to buy fishn chips.
Mrs DD mine are usually well battered by the time I gut,skin and bone em
Toby 12 gauge but don't put the end of the barrel in the water, well not while I'm watching, just close to! BOOM and they float belly up, just need a good gaff to haul them in.Quote:

The greeny fish on the photo (tench) I haven't tried it before so not sure how to go about it...
I think with any fish I try for the first time it goes on the frying pan... best way to try its natural taste....
Been catching fair bit of eels too... I've been throwing them back in the water... Any recipes for those?
Secret with eels is learning to bone them, my old man use to remove the skin with pliers and then have a way of completely removing the bone skeleton, up there with the best fish I've ever eaten really nice and the same smoked
